I just want to be honest and get an honest answer and I mean no offense, I hope this is okay to ask:
Is one of the reasons you vote for him because he is black? If so, that is okay, because I can guarantee you, if the roles were reversed and we lived in a world where every US president had been black, but finally there was a white contender, I would vote for him just based on that fact.

How is it that someone can list a dozen good reasons for his vote...and yet you still think the candidate's half-blackness has something to do with it?
That is some serious stupidityedit on 2-11-2012 by Hawking because: (no reason given)
Hmm, maybe because people openly admitted that the reason they voted for him the first time was they wanted to be "part of history" or to prove to their friends and maybe themselves that they werent racist.edit on 11/2/2012 by Juggernog because: (no reason given)

Good post. I like seeing people speak their minds without being a "liberal" or "conservative." Kudos.
But remember, that great post you have, you didn't write that.

Does anyone remember the shredding of the Constitution under G. W. Bush with the Patriot Act? Most of the offenses you've listed were done via Bush Jr.
Sure, the NDAA is horrible -- but it only building on the foundation that your Republican party put in place.
Patriot Act, look it up sometime.

As a US citizen and soldier it is my duty to protect the constitution, and as such I will not endorse any president that considers the constitution imperfect and flawed...

This is one of the most retarded slogans I've seen in my life, and it is grossly disrespectful to the American public. Not that it deserves respect in 100% cases, but this... This is both stupid and manipulative. If they thought this would make me vote Ron Paul, kiss my creamy @rse. Never thought that there were certifiable morons among his followers, but hey, live and learn.
Can anyone here say that the American public is better off once he took office?
